Nurturing the next champions

4WD Sports

For the second year running, a group of dedicated Waikato Offroad Racing Club members have staged an event focusing on the next wave of racers: the youth Kiwitruck category.

Held on the club’s purpose-designed short course track at the TECT Park near Tauranga, the Super Fly race day attracted 11 young racers across the category’s J and M classes.

Also invited this year were racers under 18 who have graduated to the sport’s main classes.

There were in-class heats and a longer enduro race, with prizegiving, trophies and product prizes afterward.

The event was combined with the club’s end of year celebration, with a BBQ camp-out on the Saturday evening and an all-comers ‘fun laps’ day on the Sunday.
